In replace of textbooks, you'll find yourself shelling out a lot of money for films if you cannot find them online. There tends to be a lot of reading and time consuming work each week. The work is at least worth it, as you'll learn a lot. If you do not have a lot of free time to devote to the course then don't take it.

Professor Perry is a very excellent teacher. I took her Drama 30 online class for summer. The work she gives is easy but time consuming so start on it right away. She gives great feedback like no other teacher had done for me. Her feedback is specific and as long as you listen to her, you will pass trust me. She's my favorite teacher by far.
